M50 is a low end swap especially on an M3 but look at it this way...same HP, more torque, cheaper parts, reliable, no valve adjustments, cheap to replace...etc. Only thing you're trading off is about 60lbs more up front and not having the proper engine. If the price is good, don't let the M50 deter you.

      I'm rebuilding my S14 right now and have replaced all wear items in the engine. It's not for the faint of heart. I thought about just swapping in an S50 and being done with it but chose not to.

      Sounds like the M50 is a better option really....

      24V M50, M3 cams, Turner Tune, full exhaust, ect....
